CarlislePaWx Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Well once again I spoke too soon. The snow has restarted again and is falling heavily enough to accumulate again. Skies have darkened and temp is 31.3 degrees. All I need is 0.3" more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlislePaWx Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Well, it really is ending now with just a few stray flakes coming down. But, the 15 minutes of additional accumulating somehow gave me 0.3" more snow to reach 2.8" for this storm. This gives me a seasonal total of precisely 30.0"! Yay! (lol) Temp up to 31.8 so slow melting will be starting soon. Hard to believe that just 3 days ago today's event looked like it would be practically nothing. Things don't always trend in the wrong direction leading up to an event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbler86 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Pregame wise this has been one of the least talked about borderline WSW (for some) snows I can remember here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least we finally got an overperformer. GFS for long time leading up to this event it was mostly a rain event. Maybe we will get the same results end of the week.

pasnownut Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Flurries now in ETown. Happy for this nice event. Hoping we hang onto snowpack for this week. Looks like Wednesday is our melt day to survive, then we should hold what we have into the weekend. Beyond that.....don't really care. I made sure to take advantage of every chance to play in my precious snow....and I dare say, I'm pooped. Couple more times would be great though.

GFS has not had a good winter from my recollection. RGEM was best on the depths today and, at least for the LSV, the Nam's call of sleet did fairly well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because it was so consistent and didn’t really have a chance of home run type totals or long duration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats my worry, but its a ways away and as long as its not warm rain....I'm ok w/ whatevs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mount Joy Snowman Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Snow has let up here, just some very light intermittent sleet falling. Looks like an event total of 3.5". Temp up to 36, roads should be fine later this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was consistently modeled that something was coming, and when one looked solely at the GFS, it didnt scream snow....you had to do a little diggin to find the diamond in the rough. Peeps here where all chatty about "where did this come from - TV said little to nothing".... I suggested its a warm bias playing into some hoping it doesn't happen...add that to mets being "constantly wrong" mentality...and that's why you didn't hear about it. I told her I knew about this since mid last week, and its been showing up for many many runs. She was just shaking her head in disbelief. I giggled both inward and outward.....she snarked at me (playfully). Snow lovers rejoice...we win again!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't watch local news any longer but I can tell you in the past most relied on the GFS for their forecast. WGAL was pretty much the EURO/GFS combination. But many don't use the short range models at all or the CMC to flush out the pattern of what is going to happen. This is probably a perfect case for it. Luckily it is above 32 in most locations now at least around here. If this was a colder pattern the most impacted would have been the schools. But roads should be fine for the buses I would think unless along the high terrain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are still people/families who gather around the TV when Joe Calhoun comes on as if it was the President speaking about an impending war. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
